[PATCH v2] usbip: make remote list honor parsable output

Jason Colapietro <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-usb,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.stable
Message-ID <CA+Z0x2J-kxsCBJbDP0DbfEHYQxz_Zg_YAHA8t8nrFM7aNnytSQ@mail.gmail.com>
The -p option only affects local devices and gadgets. Remote lists still
print their human-readable headings and details, so scripts cannot parse
them using the documented option.

Pass the parsable flag through the remote listing path. Emit the same busid
and usbid record used for local devices while continuing to consume every
interface record from the server.
